Pollution Prevention Activities for Selected Chemical
Reporting Year | Section 8.10: Newly Implemented Source Reduction Activity | Section 8.10: Methods to Identify Activity | Section 8.11: Optional Pollution Prevention Information* |
---|---|---|---|
2022 |
Source Reduction:: S35: Other improvements to inventory and material management
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
|
S35: Minimize copper in the incoming feed materials |
2021 |
Source Reduction:: S11: Reformulated or developed new product line
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits
Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. |
S11: SRT may investigate use of aluminum alloys that use less copper. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Aluminum alloy composition is specified by client and deviation could result in products not meeting requirements. |
2019 | Other Environmental Practices - SRT has continued to improve hood design and install new hoods on electric induction furnaces. | ||
2018 |
Source Reduction:: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)
Barriers: B1-Barriers to P2 B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat |
W52: Redesigned hoods over furnaces increasing capture efficiency and therefore collecting more of dust before escaping into the atmosphere. Source Reduction - Internal audits regarding the improvement of hood designs on the furnaces to increase the collection efficiency of waste gases coming from the furnace. Barriers to P2: B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat - Any additional increase to collection efficiency would require a plant-wide redesign that would cost prohibitive. |
